But when I was an agent, learning some basic Python and VBA (Excel) really helped me save time in the process of collecting and analyzing real estate data.I've been working with technology for the last 25 years; sometimes you don't need sexy, you just need a tool that works.It's a sin that, we technologist, fall for often: searching for sexy instead of "this old thing just works" :) Agreed, though in my experience, a lot of real estate professionals are far from the most technical people, so having clean and intuitive software UI is very key... but then again the MLS exists and that to my knowledge still doesn't have a back button... lol

My handyman couldn’t even get paint today because the machine at Home Depot couldn’t mix it thanks to the CrowdStrike software update that caused a global tech outage.

Software development is slow.

The IRS in its Passive Activity Loss Audit Technique Guide published a sample Activity Log.  

I don't know how to run a skip trace and don't know the proper software that people use and in Florida, some people do not take kindly to knocking on doors :)Thank you!

@Sachin ReliaI know they just launched a new reit 2, in their last reit they have yet to submit their audited financials from 2022 (due by April 30th) or their semi annual report for 2023 (due by September 30th)They also have switched auditing firms in this new venture….I would ask them the status of the above.

You can look into the BiggerPockets-affiliated software for landlords here in the Tools section.Another option could be a local Realtor who either works a ton of rentals or does a lot of business in North Austin.The software route may still require involvement on your end i.e. setup, communication, document review, etc. 

For context, I'm currently doing research on property management software, and was hoping to learn more about the challenges that landlords face.

Many people like to do a lease audit with estoppel certificates.

What property management software you guys are using, and how much are you paying for it?
